They are usually unshaven, ungroomed, smelly from not taking a shower, has put no effort into taking care of their health or hygiene. They may also seem rather strange and difficult to appreciate.

The Farris Factor

A true miracle of the world, one of God's own proto-types.

See: Scott, Batman, Jesus, Daddy Scott

1. Incredibly good looking. Usually found surrounded by a group of girls but can sometimes be found laying back and reading a book. Always there when you need someone to talk and can easily make you laugh. Friends always come first.

2. Possibly, and most likely the most amazing guy you will ever meet. He is passionate, caring, funny, thoughtful, extremely handsome, and overly energetic! Always horny, but does not think with his overly huge wang.

3. Is extremely intelligent, funny, kind, and always there for you. He usually has a plan to do something to better the world, but spends a great amount of time playing CAPTAIN-SAVE-A-HO. Liked by a lot of people and is very,very attractive.

Girl one: Gee last night guess who i hung around?

Girl two: Duh girl I already know everyone was hanging around The Farris Factor, he has a great personality.

Bob Factor

Losing in life. No matter what the subject or how much of a sure thing you think it is you loose. A curse or hex.

I bet on Atlanta to win the Super Bowl and got Bob Factored.

Gyte’s Factor

A multiplication factor used to calculate how long someone with a ‘delicate posterior’ takes to have a shit. (Approximately 3.5-4.0)

Often taking obscene lengths of time for the most un-noteworthy of bowel movements, thus delaying countless trips, activities and functions.

George: How long has Danny been away shitting? Surely he can’t take this long.

Josh: I know it should only be 10-15 minutes.

Jack: Have you applied Gyte’s Factor? That would take it to at least 30 minutes.
